have any provisions for indemnification of directors or officers in its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation. Article&nbsp;III,
Section&nbsp;3.7 of the By-Laws, as amended and restated, effective as of April&nbsp;15, 2020, provides that unless the Board of Directors
of the Registrant (the &ldquo;<B>Board</B>&rdquo;) shall determine otherwise, the Registrant shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted
by law, any person who was or is, or who is threatened to be made, a party to an action, suit or proceeding (and any appeal therein),
whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or arbitrative, by reason of the fact that such person, such person&rsquo;s testator
or intestate, is or was a director, officer or employee of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a
director, officer or employee of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys&rsquo; fees), judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding. At the Board&rsquo;s
discretion, such indemnification may also include advances of a director&rsquo;s, officer&rsquo;s or employee&rsquo;s expenses prior
to final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding.</P>

the North Carolina Business Corporation Act (the &ldquo;<B>North Carolina Act</B>&rdquo;) enables a corporation in its articles of incorporation
to eliminate or limit, with certain exceptions, the personal liability of directors arising out of an action whether by or in the right
of the corporation or otherwise for monetary damages for breach of their duties as directors. No such provision is effective to eliminate
or limit a director&rsquo;s liability for: (1)&nbsp;acts or omissions that the director at the time of the breach knew or believed to
be clearly in conflict with the best interests of the corporation; (2)&nbsp;improper distributions as described in Section&nbsp;55-8-33
of the North Carolina Act; (3)&nbsp;any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; or (4)&nbsp;acts or
omissions occurring prior to the date the exculpatory provision became effective. As noted above, the Registrant&rsquo;s Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation do not contain a provision that eliminates or limits such personal liability.</P>

55-8-58 of the North Carolina Act permit a corporation to indemnify its directors, officers, employees or agents under either or both
a statutory or non-statutory scheme of indemnification. Under the statutory scheme, a corporation may, with certain exceptions, indemnify
a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation who was, is or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative and whether formal or informal, because
of the fact that such person was or is a director, officer, agent or employee of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request
of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise. This indemnity may include the obligation to pay any judgment, settlement, penalty, fine (including an excise
tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) or reasonable expenses incurred in connection with a proceeding (including counsel
fees), but no such indemnification may be granted unless such director, officer, employee or agent (1)&nbsp;conducted himself in good
faith, (2)&nbsp;reasonably believed (a)&nbsp;that any action taken in his official capacity with the corporation was in the best interests
of the corporation or (b)&nbsp;that in all other cases his conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation&rsquo;s best interests,
and (3)&nbsp;in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Whether a director
has met the requisite standard of conduct for the type of indemnification set forth above is determined by a majority vote of a quorum
of the board of directors who are not parties to the proceeding in question, a duly designated committee of directors if a quorum of
the full board cannot be established, special legal counsel selected by the board or duly designated committee of directors, or the shareholders
(excluding shares owned or controlled by directors who are parties to the proceeding in question) in accordance with Section&nbsp;55-8-55
of the North Carolina Act. A corporation may not indemnify a director under the statutory scheme in connection with a proceeding by or
in the right of the corporation in which a director was adjudged liable to the corporation or in connection with any other proceeding
charging improper personal benefit in which a director was adjudged liable (whether or not involving action in his official capacity)
on the basis of having received an improper personal benefit.</P>

of the North Carolina Act require a corporation, unless its articles of incorporation provide otherwise, to indemnify a director or officer
who has been wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which such director or officer was, or
was threatened to be, made a party because he is or was a director or officer of the corporation against reasonable expenses incurred
by him in connection with the proceeding. Unless prohibited by the articles of incorporation, a director or officer also may make application
for and obtain court-ordered indemnification if the court determines that such director or officer is (1)&nbsp;entitled to mandatory
indemnification under Section&nbsp;55-8-52, in which case the court will also order the corporation to pay the director&rsquo;s or officer&rsquo;s
reasonable expenses incurred to obtain court-ordered indemnification, and (2)&nbsp;fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification
in view of all relevant circumstances, whether or not he met the standard of conduct set forth in Section&nbsp;55-8-51 or was adjudged
liable as described in Section&nbsp;55-8-51.</P>

the conditions of and limitations on, the indemnification described above under the statutory scheme, Section&nbsp;55-8-57 of the North
Carolina Act permits a corporation to indemnify, or agree to indemnify, any of its directors, officers, employees or agents against liability
and expenses (including attorneys&rsquo; fees) in any proceeding (including proceedings brought by or on behalf of the corporation) arising
out of their status as such or their activities in such capacities, except for any liabilities or expenses incurred on account of activities
that were, at the time taken, known or believed by the person to be clearly in conflict with the best interests of the corporation. Consistent
with the foregoing, the Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its independent directors, pursuant to which
the Registrant has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each director against any and all liabilities
and assessments (including attorneys&rsquo; fees and other costs, expenses and obligations) arising out of or related to any threatened,
pending or completed action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or other, including,
but not limited to, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (whether with or without court approval), and any interest,
assessments, excise taxes or other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any of the foregoing, incurred by the
independent director and arising out of his status as a director or member of a committee of the Board, or by reason of anything done
or not done by the director in such capacities. After receipt of an appropriate request by an independent director, the Registrant will
also advance all expenses, costs and other obligations (including attorneys&rsquo; fees) arising out of or related to such matters. The
Registrant will not be liable for payment of any liability or expense incurred by an independent director on account of acts which, at
the time taken, were known or believed by such director to be clearly in conflict with the Registrant&rsquo;s best interests.</P>

otherwise authorized by the North Carolina Act to indemnify that person. The Registrant has purchased and maintains such insurance.</P>
